If you've read anything at all about Content Management Systems (CMS), you'll probably know at least three things: CMS are the most exciting way to do business, CMS can be really, I mean really, complicated and lastly Portals are absolutely, outrageously, often unaffordably expensive.
 Example Caption Joomla! is set to change all that ... Joomla! is different from the normal models for portal software. For a start, it's not complicated. Joomla! has been developed for the masses. It's licensed under the GNU/GPL license, easy to install and administer and reliable. Joomla! doesn't even require the user or administrator of the system to know HTML to operate it once it's up and running. |

Information received yesterday indicates that the American Legion is distributing $500,000 to eligible OIF/OEF disabled veterans. Each eligible veteran could receive $500. Attached is a letter from the Legion which describes the program and application process. It appears that this program is open to all qualified veterans and American Legion membership is not required. In keeping with our philosophy that service officers should be aware of all available benefits for veterans, we bring this to your attention so that you may alert any potentially eligible OIF/OEF veterans. |

VA Accused Of Failing To Help Veteran Suffering From PTSD. Newhouse News Service (12/6, Werneth) reports 60-year-old Arthur McCants III, 60, of Eight Mile, Ala., says he suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder because he was forced to undergo waterboarding in 1975 in a Navy survival course. Now, McCants and his sister "accuse the Veterans Administration of ducking its obligation to provide him with disability help." The VA, however, "has reported that it can find no proof that waterboarding occurred during such Navy training." As a result, the agency notified McCants last month that it had denied his request to be declared 100 percent disabled for post-traumatic stress disorder as a result of the waterboarding. In an email, a VA representative in Washington, D.C., indicated that he could not discuss the case unless McCants completed and returned a VA document agreeing to disclosure of his records. |
